Origin story

Since I remember — I've had a huge fascination with technology. As a teenager, I was constantly browsing forums, reading cracked articles, watching too many tutorials and quoting the latest memes. That’s how I became internet savver.

My career started as a software developer but it soon became clear that my true passion was design — now, combining both skillsets. I’m currently working at Capgemini executing web and mobile design projects for the company and its clients from all over the world. Working end-to-end from concept creation through to delivery. Lead projects through their complete lifespan from planning, concept development, prototyping, wireframing and design through implementation and post launch evaluation.

I shaping personalized user experiences to help expand the definition of predictive experiences. I am comfortable in uncharted territories where design hasn’t historically found itself or where the rules and engagements aren’t already established.

After work

When I'm not designing, I enjoy riding a bike, reading books, binge-watching Netflix, hacking and going on spontaneous adventures.

Also, there is the list of the new things which I dig into: 
→ burn at least 430 calories every-single-day
→ 10 minutes of Anapana every day 
→ read 12 books a year 
→ learn React (JavaScript library for building web UI) 
→ learn Swift (programming language for  devices)

Below you’ll find an occasionally-updated list of books and podcasts I’ve read and listened. Few of them are related to design, but some make you think.
